COTR Avalanche volleyball teams winless in weekend action

The College of the Rockies Womens volleyball team is learning from their mistakes after a winless weekend at home.

The Avalanche lost in straight sets to Capilano College Friday and were edged three sets to two the following day.

Head Coach John Swanson says he’s glad the younger players on the team are gaining experience regardless of the outcome.

“There’s just so much learning and growth with our team that we have this year and a lot of the inexperience that we have with a lot of our players.” says Swanson. “We just have to continually look to grow and learn and go through the bumps in the road.”

The women are now winless in their last eight matches.

“Obviously getting some wins is going to be important.” says Swanson. “Not just physcologically but to stay in a playoff spot.”

Meanwhile the Mens Avalanche team had virtually the same outcome over the weekend.

The men were swept in three sets Friday and were beat 3-2 by Capilano Saturday.

Both teams are back in action this weekend hosting Columbia Bible College.
